All:

Please be VERY careful about any parts that have that old phrase "used for about 100 miles" attached to them!!!

Kinda like saying "just used a little" (bit) and then calling something NOS (see eBay for good examples of this)....

Greg Parker "used for waaay more than 100 miles, but you couldn't easily prove it" Parker A2, MI USA. where NOS means "New, Old Stock"
